Love from orential Orthodox Church ( Armenian Apostolic Church, the Coptic Orthodox Church of Alexandria, the Syriac Orthodox Church, the Ethiopian Orthodox Tewahedo Church, the Eritrean Orthodox Tewahedo Church, and the Malankara Orthodox Syrian Church (Indian Orthodox Church)
The priest in the beginning is actually a Japanese-American actor named Cary-Hiroyuki Tanaka. He played a Japanese priest who was sent to a remote village in Russia to serve The Orthodox Church there. After he filmed that movie, he actually converted to Orthodoxy in Russia & took the name Panteleimon.
Because most of them are old people who converted from Shintoism, Roman Catholicism, or Protestantism. The old people converted without bringing their children & grandchildren. The youth are very few & most of them don't have children. Most youth in Japan don't bother having a religion. Religion is a cosmetic for most of them. They literally get married in a church & get prayed by Buddhist monks when they die. Pray for Orthodoxy in Japan. ☦️🙏
@@P.Whitestrake just pray for christians in japan. jesus christ, youre so obsessed with your specific denomination club. Do you guys provide any benifits fofr exclusive membership?
@@samuraijosh1595*Any kind of Christianity is a denomination, if you really think about it. Protestant, Orthodox and Catholic, they're all denominations. But yes, in any case, one should pray for all Christians in Japan. God bless you. Аминь.* ☦️
I know some people who would be appalled by this, and honestly it makes no sense. Many parts of the world do this in a way to connect deeper with such figures. Truth is, some of those people who believe that it is apalling are the same ones who have a picture of Jesus as white or of european descent.
@@siber20s No offense, but Middle Eastern isn’t exactly Asian. He was a Palestinian Hebraic Jew. Though some people do consider Middle Easterners to be Asian, which I personally don’t agree with, but okay.
@saiasiqwertyuiop6443 Not to get technical with you,but The Holy Land is in West Asia. Whether you consider the Middle East "Asian " or not,is a problem for you and no one else.
Christianity is all over the world, and I am an Egyptian Christian, and the number of Egyptian Christians is between 30 and 35 million Egyptian Christians. We are all Orthodox Christians, and I hope all christians will be orthodox bec. It the true way with god✝️✝️
no need, my dear human brother. the Most High God has no religion whatsoever. He only recognizes the Truth burning in the hearts of human beings who seek an honorable, pure, righteous and spiritual way of life, in spite of labels and outer trappings and forms. The Most High God is NOT sectarian. ..
@@vtino4825 No, my dear, God chose His religion for us, and the religion is Christianity. Just imagine with me that there is no specific religion to God, so God will not condemn anyone on the last day, but God said, “Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved,” meaning God is talking about Christianity + the sects in Christianity are not different except in some things. Very small. I mean, the Catholics differ from us, the Orthodox, only in something called purgatory and the divinity of God. The Catholics say that God has two natures, but we say that God has one nature. This is the only difference in I want all Christians to unite as we were in the past. We all had a belief. One and the same thought, but unfortunately a difference has occurred between Catholics and Orthodox
If you are Japanese or in an area that is very heavy with nonbelievers, then hear me out. I decided i would pray every single day at least once, for an amazing testimony to share with people. In my heart, i believed i would have kept praying for the rest of my life, if i had too. So after 8 months or so, God gave an AMAZING testimony that is very real... Then, that event strengthened my faith to the point that i started getting amazing prayers answered very often because i quit doubting... and was alinged with the Bibles instructions. Then, i started copying and pasting my testimony all over these RU-vid comment sections and sharing it with people id meet... Im telling you, it adds up and sharing your testimony gets easy to do... Especially if its online. THIS way of reaching the masses is so effective and easy...
BEAUTIFUL AND GNARLY TO SEE THIS! Lovely mass and lovely voices ...Catholic and Orthodox are universal ..we are brothwrs and sisters in Christ 💯🙏🏻✝️☦️🇺🇲🇯🇵🕊️
too bad that Orthodoxy couldn't help you to be accepted fully by the Father in Christ ; it only helps you to be religious. that's why you feel more affinity with a human saint rather than with the Messiah who loves you and accepts you totally with His unconditional and perfect love.
@@vtino4825 You have misconceptions about Orthodoxy. We pray to the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit many times a day. Asking the Saints to pray for us is in addition as we are told to pray for one another and to pray unceasingly.
This is beautiful...i will be baptized into a Romanian Orthodox Church after the Fast of the Apostles. . I'm so grateful to be coming into communion with you. Thank you for blessing us. MB
@@sever8351the Most High has NO religion whatsoever, and He did NOT send His Son to start a religion ; it was fallen human nature that perverted the Living Path of Messiah into a religion that is filled with bickering, arrogance, strife, ritualism
Wow. Absolutely beautiful. I’m a Protestant convert from Catholicism. However I see more and more beauty within the Orthodox tradition of which I am captivated by.
